Chapter 201 It’s True
"No, I will really tell the truth this time!" The succubus screamed at the top of her lungs, but Ling and I had no reaction and continued the preparations. After everything was completed, Ling began to cut her soul. Of course, the whole process was filled with the screams of the succubus. In the end, the succubus was so painful that she almost died. Otherwise, Ling's soul-stabilizing skills would have probably caused her soul to collapse.
After finishing all this, Ling did not remove her tool, but stood aside and continued to wait for my next instruction. I walked up to the succubus and patted the succubus who had fainted, and finally made her regain consciousness. "Okay, now you have tried the most cruel criminal law. What is the truth? Can you tell me?"
"The truth...the truth is in my left hand." The succubus said tremblingly. I winked at Brigitte, and Brigitte immediately let go of the succubus' left hand. After the succubus' left hand was freed, she said to me tremblingly: "Take off my gloves."
I nodded, and Ling immediately stepped forward and pulled off her gloves. I saw that there was nothing special on the succubus's left hand. There seemed to be nothing eye-catching except for the fair skin. But then she focused her eyes on her left arm, and then she saw a strange pattern gradually began to appear on her left arm. It looked a bit like a magic circle, but because the lines on it were relatively complicated, we I can't figure out the specific function either.
Among my demon pets, Ling's magic knowledge is relatively profound. She can roughly deduce the specific function of an unknown magic circle just by relying on the magic circle diagram. However, this process takes time, and the results cannot be obtained at a glance. . The magic circle in front of me suddenly flashed with yellow light after it completely emerged, and then the entire picture turned into a piece of citrine and rolled down from the succubus' arm. With a snap, the piece of crystal fell to the ground. , it was like a smoke bomb was detonated, and the area became as invisible as a bathhouse!
As soon as the yellow mist appeared, we guessed that the succubus might have used another trick, so Ling and I both instantly retreated and left the area covered by the yellow mist. However, it was only after we exited that we discovered that the yellow mist was covering the area. The area is not large, and it is disappearing rapidly. In about ten seconds, the yellow mist completely dissipated in the air, and the succubus was still well controlled by Brigitte. The only difference was that there was a strange undead creature on the scene.
As soon as Ling saw the creature, he wanted to take action, but I stopped him because the creature in front of him did not attack. Although he was holding a weapon, he did not move. He stood there like a sculpture and did not move. . Seeing our appearance, the succubus also knew that we regarded this thing as an enemy, so she explained: "You don't need to be wary of it, it is unconscious and will not attack you actively!"
"What is this?" I asked as I walked over, because I had already seen that this thing was indeed not dangerous. This creature looks a bit like the legendary God of Death. Its entire body is suspended in the air more than a foot above the ground, and it also wears a long black cloak covered with golden magic patterns. The face and other parts of the body were almost completely covered by the cloak, with only the hand holding the weapon exposed. From the look of that hand, this guy seems to be made up of a white fog, but there are still skeletons inside the fog. In this hand is a huge scythe more than three meters long, but unlike ordinary scythes, this scythe is translucent and looks like it is made of fog.
The succubus looked at that thing and explained to us: "This is the cultivator, a super treasure collected by the European Dark Temple. Its body is the citrine, and the one above is just the projection of its power. The crystal on the ground is It’s the essence.”
After hearing this, I carefully squatted down and grabbed the crystal. The reason why I had to pick it up carefully was mainly because I was afraid that the thing would suddenly move and attack me. After all, this thing seemed to be very powerful. Hongyue has an agent of death similar to this thing as a magic pet. It is a super powerful thing. Just by looking at the appearance, I can tell whether the one in front of me is stronger or weaker than Hongyue's magic pet, so I have to be careful. But the succubus obviously told the truth. This thing was indeed just an unconscious power projection, because it disappeared as soon as I picked up the crystal.
"What is this for?"
"The cultivator is used for users to hone their own strength. Using it can train themselves. I was just an ordinary succubus, and it was through it that I upgraded to my current state."
"Is this stolen from the Dark Temple?"
"To be exact, I picked it up." The succubus explained: "Someone stole it from the Dark Temple, but that guy was discovered, and then he hid the thing in an attempt to lure away the pursuers and come back later. Take it away, but I happened to see him hiding it, so I just...!"
"So you just took it back and hid the news from Ditans, right?"
"Yes." The succubus replied dejectedly: "But I was very unlucky, because after I went back I discovered that the aura of this thing cannot be hidden. As soon as I returned to the Dark Temple, Ditans sensed it, and then I I ran out with this thing, but I don’t know why even the gods on your side knew about this thing. As a result, I was robbed as soon as I arrived here, but I ran away in the end. After that, I Just arrived at rb, and you all know what happened next!”
I nodded and said, "If I had told the truth earlier, wouldn't I have had to suffer so much?"
"But I'm really not willing to give in. I finally got this opportunity but...!"
"You want to possess such a good thing without the strength? Pie-in-the-sky things do happen, but there are not a few people who are smashed to death by pies. By the way, how do you use this thing?"
"It's very simple. Just hold it in the palm of your left hand and think about how you want to become stronger."
"What will be the reaction after it is activated? And how did that thing you just turned into a tattoo?"
"The thing just now will appear after it is activated, and then it will fight you. If you defeat it, you will be rewarded. After the first training, it will become a tattoo lurking in your arm, unless you take it out with your mind. Or someone cuts your arm off, otherwise it won’t fall out.”
"How prompt is the training? Is it fast?"
"The speed of improvement depends on your requirements. This thing can transform, but they are all undead creatures, ranging from low-level skeletons to the most advanced forms of death. You can make requirements based on your own strength, and you can defeat the stronger ones. The more improvements an individual gets, and there will be additional rewards based on your personal strength. If you defeat a creature that is much worse than yourself, the improvement will be reduced proportionally, and you will get additional rewards for leapfrogging challenges. Specifically, I I suggest you give it a try and you’ll understand everything.”
"Sounds very tempting, but do you think I'm stupid?" After I said that, I winked at Ling, who immediately stepped forward and used Soul Cut to cut off another toe of the succubus. Looking at the succubus who was about to collapse, I said angrily: "You keep tempting me, don't you just want to trick me into using it? Why didn't you tell me about the side effects of this thing? Do you really think I am a three-year-old child? ?”
"You...you didn't ask...!" The succubus replied feebly. She really looks more breathless than a dead person now, but she is like this and still wants to harm me. She really uses the devil's spirit. Implemented thoroughly enough!
"Okay, I advise you to put away your cleverness and tell me the negative effects of this thing now."
"The negative effect is that this thing actually has a will. It is a leveling maniac. Once you start using it, it will force you to continue to strengthen it, regardless of whether you want to continue to strengthen it."
"What specific reaction will there be?"
"Every once in a while, it will forcibly pull you into its special space to fight. You won't be able to get out unless you defeat it. And there is actually a limit to the intensity of the battle you choose, so you can't choose it every time. You only need to set the difficulty when you use it for the first time. If you fail, the level of the next battle will drop by one level. If you win, the difficulty will increase by one level. And failure is not free. Every time Each failure will deduct part of your attribute value."
"Then why do you still cherish it so much and refuse to tell me?"
"Well...it's actually a bit troublesome, but as long as I can win, this thing's auxiliary effect is still very strong. At least for me, it has transformed from an ordinary succubus into a god-level powerhouse. This progress is not big enough. ?"
"That's right!" I thought for a while and said: "In this way, this thing can be used once. Besides, if you can't stand it anymore, can't you give it up?" I turned around and said to Matsumoto Masaru: "Look Your super skill depends on it!"
Masamoto Matsumoto looked at the piece of citrine carefully and said: "Well... can you try it first? From what you said, it sounds very dangerous. Don't let me play with myself if I can't get my skills by then. It’s disabled!”
"That's right. Let me try it for you first! Since this thing is made to assist in upgrading, it shouldn't be a deadlock, and it can definitely be broken through. With my strength, which ranks first in the world's combat power list, if If you can't pass it, then this thing is equivalent to a waste product. I don't think there should be anything so perverted. Just wait for me for a while. I will tell you how effective it is after I test it." I said and followed what the succubus said. way to activate the crystal. The people around me only saw the citrine piece of light flashing and I disappeared.
